    Protecting Your Special Child – The Power of a Special Needs Trust

    For families blessed with a special child, the biggest concern is:
    “Who will care for my child after I’m gone?”

    This is where a Special Needs Trust becomes not just a legal instrument, but an act of enduring love and foresight.

    Why a Special Needs Trust?

    1. Protects & Manages Assets Thoughtfully
      It ensures your child’s inheritance is used only for their well-being — not misused or mismanaged by others.
    2. Preserves Government Benefits
      A regular inheritance could disqualify your child from receiving disability-related government benefits.
      A Special Needs Trust avoids this.
    3. Staggered & Structured Distributions
      The trust allows you to customize how and when funds are released — even beyond the age of 18, ensuring lifelong support.
    4. Clarity for Trustees
      The trust deed spells out your exact wishes, so the appointed trustee (often a family member + a professional) can act exactly as you would.
    5. Insurance-Funded Security
      The trust is funded through a life insurance policy — you’re the life assured, and upon your passing, the insurance proceeds go directly into the trust.

    Real Life Bengaluru Case:

    Mr. Srinivasan, a senior business owner in Koramangala, set up a Special Child Trust for his son, who has Down Syndrome.
    He assigned his ₹3 crore insurance policy to the trust. Now, even if Mr. Srinivasan isn’t around, his son will always have:

    • Monthly support for medical needs
    • Housing and caregiver expenses
    • Access to fun, education, and dignity

    “It gave me peace of mind,” Mr. Srinivasan says. “I can now focus on living fully, knowing my son’s future is safe.”

    Let’s Talk.

    Whether you’re a business owner, CXO, or family patriarch, we can help you set up a Special Needs Trust backed by insurance, crafted for your unique family situation.
